The death of Lawrence of Arabia, who has been described as the most discussed Englishman of the century, was quickly followed by the publication for general consumption of his privately printed "Seven Pillars of Wisdom". Our illustrations include three pictures of Lawrence. On the top left is Augustus John's sketch, and next to that a photograph of Lawrence as Aircraftsman Shaw Next is a photograph of the funeral at the Village church of Moreton Dorset and on the right another picture of Lawrence in Arab dress. Below on the left is Feisal , with whom Lawrence fought in Arabia and who afterwards became King of Iraq. The landscape next to this is the awe inspiring Valley of Rumm in Arabia, which Lawrence used as a secret meeting place, and by contrast with this, on the right above, is the English cottage in Dorset where he went to live after leaving the Air Force.
